The enforcement authorities for Hazardous Material Transportation regulations in Colorado are
the Colorado State Patrol and local law enforcement agencies. Their enforcement authorities
extend to all public roads and streets on campus.

Due to the complex nature of these regulations, any transportation of hazardous materials shall
be coordinated through the Environmental Health and Safety Department. Transportation of
hazardous materials includes (1) the transport of hazardous material in vehicles owned by the
State and (2) the transport of School-owned hazardous material in vehicles not owned by the
State. The policy shall apply to the offering of hazardous materials for transportation by
commercial carriers, the carriage of hazardous materials in private and state vehicles, transport
of hazardous materials in luggage or carried on board any public means of transportation.

This policy may not apply to the transport of hazardous materials by a commercial vendor in
vendor-owned containers (e.g. compressed gas cylinders).

Training of Mines personnel involved in activities affecting hazardous materials transportation
shall be coordinated by the EHS Department. Specific elements of this training are supplied in
the guidance document “Training Requirements for Transportation of Hazardous Materials”
(Policy Index Number 2-30-0).
